Dressing for summer nights is tough territory; forgo layers and you might find yourself chilly, yet bring too many on a hot night and you’re lugging around a jacket for nothing. The ideal climate is the one referenced in that infamous Miss Congeniality scene: “April 25th because it’s not too hot, not too cold—all you need is a light jacket.” But allow Bella Hadid to serve up an evening look that completely nails the summer style conundrum.
Yesterday, the model went out in New York City wearing the perfect summer-night ensemble. She knows the power of a good cardigan, even in a season where it may not seem an obvious first choice. She chose one in white by Danielle Guizio, fastening just the top button to reveal slinky, form-fitting knit pieces underneath, including a tank and skirt by Hesperios. (Talk about cozy-chic pieces that are warm, but not too warm.) Then, Hadid added some stellar accessories to dress the whole thing up: Wandler’s leopard print Isa sandals, a Michael Kors bag with chain strap, Bagatiba s hoop earrings, and small, rectangular sunglasses. The takeaway: a sexy sweater is summer’s best secret weapon.
Luckily, the current market has a bevy of summer cardis to choose from now (and at any price point, too). Below, shop 11 styles.
